Organism Living In Habitats(Population)Organisms seldom live alone. They usually live with

other organisms which is of their own kind. A group of organisms of the same kind that live

together and reproduce in a particular place is called a community.

A population size keeps on changing and increasing when organisms of the population reproduce. It also increases when organisms of the same kind move into a particular place.

The population decreases when members of the population die or move out to a particular place to look for food and water.

Pond HabitatA pond is an aquatic habitat. It is a good

place to study how different populations depend one another for survival.

Water plants are a source of food for some aquatic animals. They also provide shade and shelter for the animals and their eggs in the water. Just like animals and plants on land, aquatic animals and plants also depend on each other for oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Examples of plant populations in pond habitat is:

Grass plants, e.g buffalo grass Duckweed, water hyacinth, water lettuce,

etc.

Examples of animal populations in pond habitat is:

Guppies, tilapia, water flea, water spider, frog, toad, etc.
